Descartes struggled to discern his dreams from reality. Morpheus rehashes this fear in rhetorical questions to Neo, Have you ever had a dream, Neo, that you were so sure was real? What if you were unable to 3. Nozicks idea was: suppose you could deliberately and knowingly choose, as Cypher does in the Matrix, to be hooked up to a machine that would give you the experiences of having friends, fame, wealth, good looks, success, and whatever else makes you happy.

Descartes took this a step further and explored the possibility of being intentionally deceived by an evil demon. Thus, doubting everything that he had previously held to be knowledge, he came to the realisation that he knew one thing, cogito ergo sum, I think, therefore I am.

This notion very much supports Baudrillards hyperreality- where the only thing one can be certain of is oneself, and hence reality is what you deem it to be. The Matrix, essentially being a technological version of this evil demon, makes relevant Descartes fears. Firstly, no one in the Matrix Trilogy knows if there is a meta-matrix, which is generating a fantasised resistance movement as a way for human batteries to regenerate a reality principle in distress.

Baudrillard 27 The idea of a meta-reality resonates with postmodernism and the destruction of the grand narrative and absolute meaning. A hint at the pastiche in the Matrix Trilogy can be seen in Neos reincarnation. It is Trinitys faith and love that brings back Neo from the dead, almost able to be considered a dues ex machina. This is somewhat allowable because of the instability and flexibility of the postmodern narrative, with a fantastical element adding to the pastiche that the Matrix Trilogy.

The second great hypothesis of Descartes which directly relates to the audience and their conviction in ungrounded knowledge is that we ourselves are living in the Matrix. Baudrillard argues that Hollywood, and by extension the Matrix Trilogy is presented in such a way that the most unreal, postmodern and artificial aspects are exacerbated in order to make our society seem more real in contrast.

While the Matrix Trilogy is a narrative of liberation from technology, the trilogy itself demonstrates how western culture and Hollywood is intrinsically linked to it. Like Fritz Langs image of the worker manually moving the hands of the clock in Metropolis , Neo embodies the hexis of contemporary technology being. Cranny-Francis In most other aspects however, the Matrix Trilogy does not capture the foreboding essence of Fritz Langs classic as well as Dark City , which despite its smaller budget or perhaps thanks to it operated on a more personal and emotional level.

The Wachowski Brothers, in drawing such a bold juxtaposition between what is reality good and what is simulation evil for the audiences viewing pleasure, becomes a selffulfilling prophecy confirming Baudrillards theory of hyperreality. Our postmodern society is awash with a deluge of images, where reality and truth is not only impossible to find, but is rarely sought after. While postmodern theorists may value the Matrix Trilogy as an intellectual or pseudo-.

Roberts Indeed, an analysis of the Matrix Trilogy can be framed to discuss feminism, racism and almost any religious or philosophical discourse. Platos Cave and Inconsistencies In the Matrix Platos Allegory of the Cave from Republic begins with chained prisoners who have lived their entire life in subterranean caverns.

Smith increasingly feels and exhibits human emotions, from rage and distress during the interrogation scene The Matrix , maniacal glee when he co-opts the Oracle Revolutions , sarcasm and irony in his interactions with Neo, and an arch sense of humour.

Felluga 73 I would argue that Morpheus is wrong in suggesting that Neo can escape the ideological construct which he perceived as the reality and see that the dystopic is the true reality. Dransfield links the innovations of late twentieth-century Australian poetry with that revolutionary implosion of Ern Malley. This is the first publication of Michael Dransfield selected poems, gathered from every book in his relatively considerable output.

They were chosen by poet and critic John Kinsella, whose lively Introduction positions this indelible Australian poet at an international level. Letter to people about pelicans. On a theme of Taktakishvili. Ground Zero. Kinsella thus shelved the project as he began to develop his characteristic adult idiom, which has articulated itself largely though not exclusively in lyric poetry. Literate, impassioned and often downright gorgeous, the prose sings with wit and vigor.

Add a little Dr. Benway to Stephen Dedalus, with a touch of Genet's Divine, and you have a glimpse of Kinsella's Thomas Icarus Napoleon, the hero of this literary drama. John Kinsella is the author of many books of poetry, fiction, criticism and plays.
